Kiera Perkins brings size, bounce-back value, and two-way grit to Averett
Perkins is a 5'6" junior G/F who missed the 2024-25 season due to injury, but she returned to Averett’s rotation in 2025-26 with a strong rebound performance, including a 10-point, 12-rebound game against Bridgewater [1][4][5]. In 2023-24, she flashed efficient scoring punch in limited minutes, averaging 3.2 points and 2.1 rebounds in 9.5 minutes while posting a career-high 15 points against Washington & Lee [1]. Why care? She looks like a high-energy, versatile glue player who can impact games without needing the ball—exactly the kind of tough, adaptable fit coaches love.
